I have 7 young chickens that need new homes. They were hatched in June. The first two photos show two 15 week old cockerels who had an Ameraucauna father and Barred Plymouth Rock or Red Comet mothers. They are both bearded and have pea combs. The red one with the black beard is very large and...

These 10 ducklings hatched August 8. Mother is a Blue Swedish and this is her 2nd clutch of the year. Fathers are Cayuga and Blue Swedish drakes and they are on sight if you want to see them. Our ducks produce jumbo eggs and are wonderful pets. They live on our 3/4 acre pond and are used to...

Excellent advice. Mama knows best!

Awww! Congratulations! One week and counting for me... Pine chips are fine. Let mama worry about those babies, you just enjoy them.

Just stick them under the hen. Why all the fuss? Good lawd, what did chickens do before mankind intervened?

Well have a wonderful time celebrating. You deserved a well made party! The menu sounds fantastic and gave me some ideas as well.

OMG what a great idea! I'm definietly doing this with my sweet corn this year. God bless you for sharing this!

Please post the results when you figure it out. Good information for us all!

Well she certainly doesn't look like she's been setting for 3 weeks! What a beauty she is! Congratulations and good job. Now comes the fun!

Make sure you "wash before eating" like the box says! I've got a broody BO too and she's always poofy and growling, just like a good broody should be! Her hatch date is June 6.

I've used both the split ring type and colored zip ties. I put the split rings on just like you'd put a key on a key ring. The bird may protest a bit but I've never hurt a bird doing it. Once it's on they forget all about it.

How exciting! congratulations and good luck with your peeps!

Sounds like they are too warm.
